We love the golf course restaurant. Very family friendly, reasonable prices, good service, friendly faces. After the renovation the bar area and outside seating area has really improved and we have been very impressed overall. They took a few of our favorite things off the menu but they added some new great ones. The golf course is also a great course and the driving range is family friendly and very reasonably priced public course overall!

This is a good city golf course with 3 distinct 9s. The Cottonwood 9 feels the toughest with its trees lining the fairways. #2 plays long, #3 & 4 play tight, #5 requires distance control, #7 penalizes fades. The Silo 9 is fun with its #5 uphill par 5 & #6 downhill screamer over the canal, but some find ending with an odd dogleg #8 over a canal and on a par 3 #9 deflating. Finding #5 after 4's green can be a bit hard the 1st couple times. Signage is iffy there. The Sleeping Indian 9 overall plays the most normal with a good par 5 finishing hole. None of the 9s play long, so the back tees are doable (maybe except #2 of Cottonwood) if you are average or longer. The clubhouse is undergoing renovations until late 2017, so you'll have to go elsewhere for a 19th hole.

Update: the renovations turned out great. The food is pretty good too.

The best deal is the 50+y old senior rate M-Th. The ponds have bass, too.

Not the first time this has happened.... can t seem to get anyone to wait on you when sitting on the patio! Finally went in to purchase from the bar and bring my own beers to our table. Feel it is poorly managed and overpriced.

Had my best round of the year here today. played the "silo" course. Really enjoyed the course layout. Lots of hills and fun greens to go after. Very much of an attacking 9. Would have rated a bit higher but there is lots of construction going on including the clubhouse which is inside of a temporary building right now because the main Clubhouse is being remodeled. Also I'm used to the really nice electric golf carts and these were outdated gas carts. Not sure about the pricing because I played in a work league so we get a discount. Fun course though will score higher once construction is done.

This is a very nice public golf course. The greens are well maintained and the tee boxes are in good shape.

Course layout is pretty easy to follow because the fairways are well defined.

The course can play tough. The rough is rough and catches a lot of balls. You'll play invert creeks, along the Ralston Creek Trail, over water, and even around old abandoned silos.

Lot of fun. Good challenging course with great views of the foothills.

This open space is home of the Meadows at Westwoods Golf Course. Also, listed on the Arvada Parks & Rec website, it is the site of the Meadows at Westwoods Playground. However, the playground is actually located southeast of the golf course and open space. There is NO parking for this playground. The closest places to park are permit-only and resident-only parking. My recommendation would be to park in the plaza parking lot at 64th & Pike, and walk to the playground. The playground itself is fairly typical. There are traditional swings and baby swings. There is a four-wheeler on a spring to pretend to ride and bounce on. There are two structures, one for smaller children and one for older children. The ground cover is pebbles, with padding under some swings, the bouncy car, the end of some slides, and the rock climbing wall. The smaller structure has about three ways to climb up, and includes a tunnel and a tic-tac-toe game. There is also one small slide. On the larger structure there are a few ways to climb up, and a couple slides. There is also a small rock climbing wall.

Beautiful golf course and freshly renovated restaurant, bar, and pro shop. Wonderful new staff and some great hold overs. New speciality cocktails and golf cart selections. New head chef and kitchen staff have put some fresh spins on menu favorites. March 20th grand opening to the public. Come be part of a destination spot in Arvada.

3 very fun 9 hole courses. Great value for the price. The course is challenging, but you can definitely score. Each 9 presents a different challenge, so there is something for everyone from target golf to the long ball hitters.

Another course that ll test your abilities and shot making. With three 9s to offer its guests, West Woods has a ton to offer Colorado golfers. This was our first time, and to be honest, this has to be in the top 5 best values in the state. We ll be back, often.

This 27 hole course was so cool and unique, didn t play as well as I wanted, of course but I will be back for the elevated tees, killer views and pin angels. Pricing wasn t to bad but we did notice that they over book tee times after 4:00. We found ourselves waiting for a while each hole during twilight.

Outstanding staff and restaurant to compliment an above average three course selection that focuses on position play. Choose the Silo course to play a longer track with spectacular views of the foothills and one of the best par 5's in the metro area. Underrated for sure...

Great course. Love it every time I play here. Cart girl met up with us 4 times which was great. The course is pretty challenging. If you've never played here you can get in some real trouble, well worth it though.

Nice large dog park that is clean and not infested with leftover dog poop. We have a Doberman Pinscher and a small Bichone Fris who both love playing and running with other dogs. We frequent this park a lot and have no issues here.

Beautiful course, but disappointed there wasn't an area outside I could sit to work while my son participated in a high school golf tournament. I understand Covid requirements, but to have some outdoor tables for first come first served for those of us without high school kids that drive. Instead I finished a meeting from my truck then drove home to await his text that he is nearing the 18th hole.

Rudest staff I have ever encountered. I asked if we could play the Cottonwood and Sleeping Indian on the phone when I reserved the tee time they said it wouldn't be an issue unless they had a tournament, when we arrived I asked about it and they scoffed at me and rolled their eyes like I was a moron for even asking. Another time I called about some of the prices and was treated as an idiot for asking. Also if you ask me the Silo course is too gimmicky, like a giant mini golf course.

If you have any other options avoid at all costs! Even if you have to drive a bit farther it will be worth it to have a more enjoyable and polite visit.

The course is typically in great shape and the facilities are always well maintained. The restaurant/club house offers great food at affordable prices. Although green fees are a bit pricey, they justify the costs by a well manicured course and great aesthetics. They have some great practice facilities as well.

This is my favorite course I've played in the metro area thus far (out of about 10). Each hole has a unique feel, the kind of course you'll remember each hole and how to play it. Lots of trees for shade but still enough room to go left/right and not be gone. Rolling course, not flat. Greens are in great condition, almost no marks. Many greens were quite large. Greatest looking driving range setup also, fire pit and tons of out door seating above the tees. Outdoor bar and restaurant. Mix of shade and sun.

I made a Tee time and told whoever I spoke to that I was going to be bringing my 3 year old son with me and he was going to hit a ball every now and then, I was told this would not be a problem. When I got to the course to check in the woman at the check in told me that my son could not go with me unless he only stayed in the cart and he was not permitted on the course at all. I was then informed it is their policy that children must be 7 years or older to step foot on the course. I have had my son on public, private, and municipal courses with me since he was 2 and never run into this problem. If you have kids under 7 who want to golf with you don't bother going to Westwoods. While most golf courses go out of their way to promote youth golf Westwoods fails.

Didn't give it five stars yet... Has been under a massive renovation over the last year. So I'm holding judgement until it completely done. If they get things back to where they were prior to the construction it will be an easy five stars.

I had never played this course and what a pleasant surprise it was to find this gem in the Denver area. It is a well laid out course with fast greens that are not too sloped. I loved the course and would play it again in a heartbeat. They have 27 holes allowing them to rotate the aeration to still give you a great experience. The pictures are from "the silo", and the signature hole.

The layout is interesting and challenging, but the course was in terrible shape when I played it (6/21/2013). Most disappointing was the staff in the pro shop that seemed to think that late June was still early in the season. With as much moisture as we received this spring, there was no excuse for all of the burnt off grass.

It could be a good course if it was better cared for.

Greens very nice, interesting pin locations. That's good. Not to difficult for a decent player. Greens fees at 60 weekend are ok, but not quite right for afternoon play. Rental clubs we're mis-matched and short without and 3 or 4. They have nice demo clubs from the OEM, but want 40 bucks a play. Get real.
